Proposal: PIT - Dumpster Dive for LW

[Dipsy Doodle]

I’m sure we would love that but reality is we simply don’t have the assets to do it.

I think we do.

Players like Kapanen and Zucker, and assets like Poulin or our 2022 1st shouldn't be off the table.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Yeah, I figured MoJo would be worth more, but at the same time he’s been pretty dreadful there eh?

Yeah, not great. Hence the hope.

Sign me up for Bobby Ryan.

They can claim Noesen off waivers for nothing.

Noesen sucks though tremendously and isn’t an NHLer.

 

[Gecklund]

Noesen sucks though tremendously and isn’t an NHLer.

He’s as much an NHLer as much as the likes of Sorensen, Smith, and Filpulla

Anaheim could matchup well here, Henrique (long shot due to contract), Rakell, and Heinen are all available.

I've wanted Rakell for a while. Looks like he's having a down season. True story? We have Dumoulin and Pettersson on the trade block. A bit awkward considering you sent us Pettersson a while back, right?

 

[DesertPenguin]

Sign me up for Bobby Ryan.

Lol, we have Burkie in the Front Office.

Nikita Gusev.

I'm listening.

Rakell is listed as a right wing. Has he played the left much?

Rakell’s actually looked better this season than in the past few, only 1 goal on the year but it’s one in 61 shots which isn’t a sustainable shooting percentage. No doubt in my mind he could easily be back to around a 70 point player with Pittsburgh’s centers. Wouldn’t mind taking back a LHD to facilitate a trade, but we’re very deep at the position (probably moreso than any on the team), so we’d need something else of value coming back the other way.

 

[MMC]

Raks is primarily a LW, and has mostly played the position in previous seasons. Him playing RW this season is mostly due to him having good chemistry with Comtois, who is a natural LW.

 

[Gurglesons]

I think we do.

Players like Kapanen and Zucker, and assets like Poulin or our 2022 1st shouldn't be off the table.

I think you need to realize who our GM is now and realize he's not going to try to trade his way out of every problem like JR.

 

[Gurglesons]

I'd be super down for Heinen, but I don't know what the fit is for us.

Rakell makes a lot of sense, but again, I don't know what the fit is for us.

I probably would still move Matheson for Henrique too, but I don't think our org would.

I'd also love Silf, but PIT and ANA just seem like bad trade partners. Dumoulin for Rakell or Silf would be what I'd shoot for. And that f***s over ANA for the ED doesn't it?

 

[Gurglesons]

Not really.

 

[DesertedPenguin]

Thanks. Feels like there should be a match here if he's available.

 

[Kuznetsnow]

Not bad value but Dumo is signed to a good deal for 3 years, Tatar is a UFA. Would want some sort of compensation to counter that especially with ED coming up.



If we can make the cap work, sure I'd be down.

Expansion draft is in Tatar's favor, if you like him you can resign him after without wasting a slot, like capitals did with Oshie

Then this team will continue losing, because the answers are not coming internally.

Which as they've made pretty clear, they don't really care about.

They have?

They have?

"This situation I'm coming into now is certainly different than the one that we took over in LA or in Philadelphia," Hextall said. "I'm not a one-trick pony. I'll work with Burkie to become the best team we can become today. If we can get better this year, we'll try and get better. And if we feel like we're good enough, then we're good enough and we'll go on."

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Noesen sucks though tremendously and isn’t an NHLer.

Well Sorensen sucks too but there seems to be enough interest from the OP to throw another player out to get him. We'd prefer a draft pick but would be understandable if Pittsburgh didn't want to give another one up.

But you claimed Noesen from PIT.

 

[Manhattan]

Zach Smith, Craig Smith, Giovanni Smith, Gemel Smith?

Don’t forget Riley Smith.
